Introduction: The purpose of this study was to compare the strength of the relationships between predictors and late-onset enophthalmos in medial and inferior orbital wall fractures and to determine the most significant predictive factor of enophthalmos in medial or inferior orbital wall fracture.

Methods: Sixty-three adult patients with unilateral medial or inferior orbital wall fracture who had been left untreated for more than two months were enrolled in this study. Patients who had accompanying multiple orbital wall fractures and those with orbital-zygomatic fractures were excluded.

Posttraumatic Delayed Enophthalmos: Analogies with Silent Sinus Syndrome? Case Report and Literature Review.

Craniomaxillofac Trauma Reconstr

Acute posttraumatic enophthalmos is a well-known symptom occurring in orbital blowout fractures. Its late onset in the absence of radiologic evidence of displaced fractures is rare and traditionally attributed to ischemic liponecrosis or fibrotic scarring of endo-orbital soft tissues. In this article, we describe a case of facial trauma, diagnosed and treated at the Maxillo-Facial Surgical Department of Hospital Ca' Granda Niguarda of Milan, in which delayed monolateral enophthalmos is associated with CT evidence of remodeling of orbital walls attributed to atelectasis of the maxillary sinus, as occurs spontaneously in patients suffering from silent sinus syndrome (SSS).

Purpose: To review the clinical and radiologic characteristics of a group of patients who experienced late enophthalmos after bone-removing orbital decompression. The surgical management of these patients is presented and a hypothesis proposed to explain the idiopathic "imploding antrum" ("silent sinus") syndrome.

Design: Retrospective, noncomparative case series.

Displacements of eyeball in orbital blowout fractures.

Plast Reconstr Surg

November 1997

Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Osaka Medical College, Takatsuki, Japan.

Thirty-two cases of orbital blowout fracture, excluding those of linear fracture with trap-door variety, were selected to study the changes of the eyeball position: posterior displacement or enophthalmos, medial and inferior displacement. Two-millimeter slices of computed tomographic scans were taken, and the eyeball positions were measured with the contralateral eye as a control. Intraorbital edema, if present, at least 10 days after injury had little effect on the position of the eyeball, nor was there any evidence to suggest the late onset of enophthalmos.
